Default Not the tuna

I don't leave tuna in the can. I would not leave mustard that long either. Latex paint turns to gloop... and completely unusable. Other paint is fine.

My brand of hair conditioner gets a little thick but usable. I leave all the toiletries in the shower and in the bathroom cabinet. All of the cleaning stuff also stays in place. Anything brand new and full to the top would get put in the big tub I have. I put all the dry goods in the tub to keep the varmints away. I also leave all the dishes and silverware in place but put in clear plastic bags ... again in case varmints run around and so I won't have to wash them all in the spring..

I even leave clean sheets on the beds and wrap the mattress in plastic. I use the plastic from these beds for painting drop cloths the next season.

I try to move as little as possible... and closing the camp is still a chore... on an island it is all about the continuous hauling. I hope to have a washer and dryer next season to cut down on that.
